Re: Live Composition Screencast with DP8 on new Mac Pro

It was just confusing that he said "template is still on PC, will consider moving to Mac Pro..."

if he's using a Mac for DP, then I must know his secrets!! What did you sacrifice to the DP Gods to get such a seemingly, wonderfully large, well working template?!?

I've found my max is around 300 MIDI tracks and about 64 audio returns... Even then I have to be at 512 or 1024 for DP not to freak out..

Maybe it's the New Mac Pro and all of it's glory? i'm still using my 2009 dual quads.. maybe that's the bottleneck?
